Dave Gahan live version on "Love Will Tear Us Apart 'by Joy Division: Viva Las Vegas!

Eye: often very difficult to see a stadium-rock star doing live versions unless you have decided to release an album devoted entirely to it. This makes it even more surprising that Dave Gahan, Depeche Mode outside, has unleashed what appears sincere love for the 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' by Joy Division to sing at a concert.

How could it be otherwise, Gahan takes away pain and adds a patina of romantic crooner. On second thought, it is hard to imagine Dave himself, in 20 years, coming on stage in Las Vegas to do just this with all the songs of Depeche Mode ... and other groups of 80. Still, more worthy than what it is Peter Hook, of course.
